Selkirk Pack
Selkirk Pack
The Selkirk is the ultimate backcountry skiing pack. Designed and meticulously hand crafted by Neil Warren, a professional ACMG Ski Guide. This ski/splitboard pack is the culmination of 30+ years of backcountry skiing experience, 25 years sewing experience, 15 years of repairing outdoor gear (seeing 1000's of gear failures) and feedback from countless customers & fellow Guides. I feel so strongly that the Selkirk is the ultimate backcountry pack, that it's now the only pack design I offer. No more custom orders, no more multiple pack designs, just like there's only one glorious Selkirk Mountain range in the world, there's only one pack from Alpine Threadworks. Note: this design was previously named the Monashee.
Fabric: Main fabric is Challenge Sailbloth's recycled EPX400. The premium, hydrophobic, Ultra400 TX Dyneema is also offered as a $100 upgrade. The lid and other lighter weight items on the pack is the recycled nylon/dyneema ripstop Ultra grid
Tall length fits back length measurements of 55-59cm
Regular length fits 52-54cm. *note* Regular is slightly less volume than the tall
If your back-length is outside of the standard size offerings, custom fitting is available.
